All 1948 cents should be separated. There are three varieties. The most recently discovered variety is the 1948 A points to small denticles. It is valued at about $25 for XF-40.

You never know what you will find in a bucket like that  I went through a friend's coffee can 2/3 full and found a 1955 n.s.f cent which is pretty rare  Of course if they are all King George , There will be no Queen Elizabeth  |

"You never know what you will find in a bucket like that"
Right--in a pile of George VI cents like that, I found six 49 ATs, including the one in that pic.

Do you collect coins or have any plans to? Because, I think that Indian Head would have pushed me over the edge! If you do collect, or want to find out if you want to, pull the valuable ones as mentioned and then go through and pull out the nicest ones of each year and put together as much of a run as possible. Maybe even the best 3 or 4 of each year. If you don't collect, you should be after that.  And you'll have a nice set put aside.  Then you can sell the balance in small lots as mentioned and have 3 or 4 "starter sets" to sell. I like buying "kits" like that.  |

Also did not see any...now that you know about them however, you may get the 'bug' and start trying to find one in other places. :) Good luck!
